No kidding. I like to see them cutting that budget a bit.
Love reading about the billions spent on that program, while I'm stepping over a homeless person in the city.
That's like saying that a company can be profitable by firing all their employees.
NASA is more than just a waste of money, and it is more than just inventing mattresses. There are thousands of inventions that have come out of NASA that have vastly improved the private sector, including the private individual. One of the main charters of NASA specifies that any inventions will be released into the private sector for their use, free of charge.
Yes, I feel bad that some people are homeless. Many are there by choice, but many are not. NASA has nothing to do with it.
Maybe instead of spending $600 for a iPhone, if we had all given that to charity, we could eliminate the homeless.
And, quite frankly, I think that it is a huge waste of money for employers to be providing phone hardware to their employees. Maybe it was a good idea when cell phones were not common, but now that even every 5 year old kid has a cell phone, why are employers spending the money on the phones. Turn that over to the users, and just pay for the business usage.
